United Arab Emirates

4 articles
United Arab Emirates enters the taxonomy as a sovereign state in West Asia through its relationship with United Arab Emirates dirham (AED). Currency administration is led by the Central Bank of the United Arab Emirates; United Arab Emirates dirham banknotes and coins circulate within the jurisdiction.

The resulting profile distinguishes the jurisdiction from the currency itself and from institutions that may issue or supervise its money.
